Lee Morris is a Southern Soul
singer fro Chicago who scored some regional hits produced by
producer wiz Floyd Hamberlin Jr. His first recorded output was a
series of 45s released in the 80s including "I Got Played On", "Weak
Man", "I Wanna Dance With You" & "I Can't Believe You're Lovin' Me".
These sides were mostly released on his own Lee & Co imprint as was
his 2004 album "I Got Played On"

** Likable
independently-released Southern Soul from Morris, who made a little noise with "Rumpshaker"
& "Whip It On U" a few years back. I believe this is his third album and you can
call "I Got Played On" Ecko Records-lite soul as it features co-producer
Morris J. Williams, a key player in that company's signature sound. One thing's
for certain- this is the best singing Lee Morris has waxed to date. He reminds
me of Johnnie Taylor on the title song and the very best cut "Party All Night",
which also boasts a fine sax lead line (Ron Echols) on a mostly-programmed
effort. Much like Ecko this disc mixes live instruments with synthesizers and
tracking. "Party All Night", 'I Got Played On" and "Party Weekend" could work as
radio singles for sure. Despite the fine singing this 10-track disc suffers
overall from some second-rate material ("I Don't Know You Anymore", "Tender
Trap") and an occasionally poor mix ("Junkyard"). Still, there's enough good
tracks to make it worth checking out.
